Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.

Hydration of vinyl ether groups by unsaturated glycoside hydrolases and their role in bacterial pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many pathogenic microorganisms invade mammalian and/or plant cells by producing polysaccharide-degrading enzymes (lyases and hydrolases). Mammalian glycosaminoglycans and plant pectins that form part of the cell surface matrix are typical targets for ...

The Zma‐miRNA319‐ZmMYB74 Module Regulates Maize Resistance to Stalk Rot Disease by Modulating Lignin Deposition

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...

Reducing the Sinapine Levels of Camelina sativa Seeds Through Targeted Genome Editing of REF1

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sinapine (O‐sinapoyl choline) is the major phenolic metabolite typically found in the oil‐rich seeds of Brassicaceae such as Camelina sativa and Brassica napus. It imparts a bitter taste to the seeds as a defence mechanism against herbivores, but it also renders them less palatable to livestock.

A Fusarium sacchari Glycoside Hydrolase 12 Protein FsEG1 Is a Major Virulence Factor During Sugarcane Infection and Confers Resistance to Pokkah Boeng Disease via the HIGS Strategy

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pokkah Boeng disease (PBD), caused by Fusarium sacchari, has severely impacted the yield and quality of sugarcane, resulting in significant economic losses. However, the molecular interaction mechanisms between F. sacchari and sugarcane remain poorly understood.

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Linking Nutritional, Sensory, and Functional Quality in Plant‐Based Proteins Through Structural Modification and Computational Insights

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
The lacking essential amino acids, low digestibility, bioavailability, bitterness, and presence of anti‐nutritional factors that limit the consumption of plant proteins and their use in food formulations are discussed comprehensively. The findings of recent studies on novel technologies and computer‐based applications used to cope with these challenges

The complex cell wall composition of syncytia induced by plant parasitic cyst nematodes reflects both function and host plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plant–parasitic cyst nematodes induce the formation of specialised feeding structures, syncytia, within their host roots. These unique plant organs serve as the sole nutrient resource for development and reproduction throughout the biotrophic interaction.
